This week on Bleeping Motherhood, we revealed some advice about applying sunscreen to children. Knowing how difficult it can be, let’s go straight to the sunburn. Because sometimes, a sunburn is just plain inevitable.

Top 5 Summer Sunburn Funnies You Need This Summer

5: It’s beach day! You’ve got your hands full with kiddos. They’re in and out of the water and you didn’t get a chance to reapply every 60-80 minutes. Guess what? Peeps got sunburned. Not only did you forget to reapply your children, you also missed yourself, and your husband has reincarnated as a cooked lobster. Next steps? Go home, shower, apply some aloe and hope for the best.

4: Congratulations. You spent all day outside chasing the kids, and you got sunburned. But let’s face it, a little sun glow goes a long way. Especially after being pasty white all winter long. The long day and sunburn leaves you a exhausted, but you have to run to the grocery store to grab some bread and milk. Have the Sun Gods turned you into a magnificent beauty, or have all the old men at the grocery store turned pervy? Let’s just hope old Mr. Hickenlooper from down the street can keep it in his pants in aisle 4 long enough for you to get the hell out of there.

3: Occasionally we end up with a sunburn facial. In the hectic throws of running around outside and chasing kids, we forget to put sunscreen on our face. Shit happens. But, we end up looking like a bit of a freak show. Now what? Own it. Wear that sunburned face like you meant to burn your face. “Yup, I meant to do this. And yes, I look fucking amazing.”

2: Aside from the facial sunburn, there’s what we call “The Fully”, A.K.A, a full body sunburn. Again, if this happens, just own it. Walk around with pride and a smile on your face. Because you’re in wicked pain and the only thing that can save you now is some vodka and a gigantic bottle of aloe.

1: If your legs get sunburned, you’ll probably have a hard time walking and be in a decent amount of pain. Just rub some cool aloe between your thighs and try not to move. Until your kids wake up and have you running around all day and then, well you’re pretty much screwed.

If you can get through the first 24 hours of your sunburn, you’re home free! Happy Tanning and may the Sun Gods be forever in your favor!
